A few weeks back I shared my Spicy Smoked Pineapple Margarita and really have started to enjoy different flavored margaritas at home. There’s something about this slight sweet, slight spicy frozen margarita that just works. These frozen watermelon margaritas are great for when you have a large watermelon laying around and not sure what to do with all of it. My kids LOVE fresh watermelon, but they maybe can eat half of it. So instead of it going bad or to waste, make this Summer cocktail!

What is a Spicy Margarita Made Of
- Tequila– I like silver tequila but whichever you prefer works just fine.
- Triple Sec- This orange liquor is flavorful but can use Cointreau too.
- Jalapeno- 1 thin slice will do just fine for some heat! Of course can leave it out if you don’t want it spicy.
- Fresh Watermelon– watermelon provides the flavor and lots of juices.
- Fresh lime juice– I used about 1/2 of a fresh lime you can used prepared juice too.
- Agave– this sweetener makes helps balance the heat of the jalapeno. You could use a dash of honey or sugar, too.
- Ice– use more or less depending how icy you like it.
- Tajin seasoning (optional)- this spiced fruit seasoning makes a perfect rim for a margarita.
That is is! Just a few ingredients come together to blend up this frozen watermelon cocktail!
